A little more about who I am.
I'm Kaeleigh — a designer who's happiest when I'm learning something new. UX turned out to be the perfect fit, because every project starts with understanding people I've never met and untangling a problem I haven't solved yet.
Through my degree and a 16-month co-op with the Ontario Ministry of Transportation, I've designed websites, run user research, and shaped complex government and enterprise workflows into clear, accessible flows. That mix of research and hands-on making is where I do my best work.
What drives me is simple: making everyday tasks easier to navigate through thoughtful, human-centred design. And when I'm not designing, you'll find me illustrating, exploring new tools, or hunting for the perfect coffee shop.
